Western defeats Evansville Mater Dei in Class 3A state title game

March 9, 2014

I traveled to Terre Haute on Saturday to photograph the Penn girls in the Class 4A title game. As I was waiting for the girls to emerge from their locker room and down the tunnel to the floor, I made a few pictures of the celebration after Western’s 38-35 win against Evansville Mater Dei in the Class 3A title game.
